For the past week, William Lloyd Garrison has been suffering from a severe attack of influenza. Garrison writes: "Mr. Greeley suggests getting the names of 'at least fifty leading, life-long Abolitionists' to the desired document. In the present divided state of feeling, I doubt whether half that number could be obtained of those who are well known to the country." Garrison fears the civil rights of the freedmen are in danger
